The food here is always delicious and you can tell a lot of care was taken to prepare it. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. Such a nice spot for a relaxing meal. The staff and service is great. If you’re looking to branch out and try some different cuisine I can’t recommend this place enough. There are tons of vegetarian/vegan options as well. We are so lucky to have a place like Ada’s in Asbury.

Great Ethopian dishes and now I've tried the Dominican food too; amazing! Ada takes pride in the food she serves and is surprisingly accessible to her guest. She greets you, thanks you for coming in and genuinely cares if you are enjoying your meal. I would say its like "coming home for Sunday dinner."Gonz

Best food I have eaten! I have known Ada since she was in West Long Branch. I have never tasted Ethiopian food as good as hers, and I look to the upcoming years for more. I highly recommend it.

If you want something that's closer to a home cooked meal, come here. It's made with pride and love. They serve Ethiopia and Dominican food.

Spectacular variety of foods to enjoy with friends. We enjoyed the 3 meat sampler among 5 people and it served us very well. And then the coconut flan dessert. Excellent!

Went twice. Tried both the Ethiopian and Dominican. Food is very good. People are nice. Live music on weekends. Prices are fair. Will definitely return. Loved the Ethiopian lamb dish.

Came here with a group of 7. We had a great time. The food is amazing. Very good quality. The owner was there and came over to say hi.

Ada's is a cozy restaurant in Long Branch that serves Domincan and Ethiopian dishes. I've been there twice. Once for the Ethiopian and the other to try the Domincan. The food is fresh, tasty and delicious.

My partner and I decided to stop in for dinner on a whim, in the middle of the week. The place was not too busy, and we did not have to wait to be seated. The decór was warm and inviting, and the menu encouraged us to make ourselves at home. That was very easy to do, given that our server was very friendly. The menu was very interesting, containing a pretty good variety of foods. Despite being a picky eater, I had no trouble finding a few things that I would want to try. I ordered the Mofongo with grilled chicken, and my partner ordered the Key Wot (tender beef with veggies and sauce). The food was phenomenal!! It was perfectly seasoned and had the perfect amount of salt! The food was hot and fresh, and we were very happy with what we ordered. We were at the restaurant until closing, at which point the owner Ada came out to chat with the table. Ada was so friendly, and we loved her personality! We are instant fans and can't wait to come back and try some new foods!

Food was good. Drove past, decided to stop in for lunch WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! Highly recommend. The bread was different but worth it... contrary to my belief, it's not a napkin.

Delicious food Everytime I come here, I always come for the Ethiopian food. The number 1 combo. We always devour the whole dish. Go try it.

Questions & Answers

She is closed for the New Year. She will reopen on January 5th.

Yes, Ada is the owner and cook. If you have any allergies, she always adjusted things for you. That being said, she does have set menu items that are gluten free, such as injera. Always ask before ordering. If you are vegan, they steer you to the salads minus the feta.

No

Do specify that you need that, but injera uses a type of sorghum. Sorghum has no gluten, so that's an option, but, she does prepare foods with other flours that likely include gluten, so, the possibility for minimal gluten "cross-contamination" exists, honestly. Therefore, if you know you react poorly to gluten, even when present in small amounts, you may meed to approach almost all food, honestly, but Ada's very carefully. If you can tolerate some potential exposure, you will lilely be fine--your mileage may vary!!!
